AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT
ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT OR ATTEMPT TO DOWNLOAD THE SAS IP.
1. DEFINITIONS.
1.1. “API” means any application programming interface provided or made
available by SAS to Customer.
1.2.“Customer” means the individual, company or institution that has licensed
software from SAS under a separate software license agreement (“Software
License Agreement”) with which a Customer Application (as defined below)
will interconnect.
1.3. “Customer Application” means an application developed by Customer which
incorporates or makes use of any SAS IP.
1.4.“Documentation” means any documentation or materials provided or made
available by SAS to Customer under this Agreement, including documentation
and materials describing an API or SDK.
1.5.“SAS Product” means any of SAS’ software, services or subscription
products licensed to Customer under a Software License Agreement.
1.6. “SAS IP” means the APIs, SDKs, Documentation, and any other intellectual
property made available by SAS under or in connection with this Agreement.
1.7. “Redistributable Code” means any sample software in object code format
provided or made available by SAS to Customer under this Agreement.
1.8. “Sample Code” means any sample software in source code format provided or
made available by SAS to Customer under this Agreement.
1.9.“SDK” or “Software Development Kits” means the contents in the SAS
developer portal (developer.sas.com) or any file or other media provided or
made available by SAS to Customer under this Agreement, including the API,
Documentation, Redistributable Code, and Sample Code.
2. LICENSE AND RESTRICTIONS.
2.1.Subject to Customer’s compliance with this Agreement, SAS grants to
Customer a non-exclusive, nontransferable, limited license to: i) internally
use the APIs or SDKs in accordance with the Documentation solely to develop
and test the Customer Applications that are capable of interconnection with
SAS Product(s); ii) reproduce and internally modify the Sample Code solely
as a component of the Customer Application; iii) reproduce the
Redistributable Code solely as a component of the Customer Application; iv)
distribute the Sample Code and Redistributable Code only in object code
format (unless object code format is not technically feasible) solely as a
component of the Customer Application. In no event shall the API be exposed
to any third party, including, but not limited to users of the Customer
Application.
2.2. SAS and its third party licensors own all right, title and interest in
all SAS IP and all intellectual property embodied therein. All rights in and
to the SAS IP not expressly granted to Customer in this Agreement are reserved
by SAS. Customer acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement gives Customer
the right to use any trademark, trade name or service mark of SAS, or any
third party from whom SAS has acquired license rights.
2.3. This is a limited license. Customer shall not, and shall not allow any
other person or entity to: i) remove or alter any copyright notices or other
proprietary legends contained in any SAS IP or related documentation; ii)
disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer any SAS IP; iii) modify,
translate, or create any derivative work of any SAS IP except as expressly
licensed herein; iv) disclose any portion of the SAS IP to any person except
to Customer’s employees and contractors who are required to use such SAS IP
in order for Customer to develop and distribute the Customer Application as
expressly licensed; or v) use any SAS IP in violation of any law or
regulation. Customer shall not use, or allow any other person or entity to
use, any SAS IP: i) to extract or derive information from any SAS Product to
any product or service other than the Customer Application; ii) for the
purpose of investigating, supporting, threatening or filing any intellectual
property infringement claim against SAS or its affiliates; or iii) for the
purpose of developing or using an offering or product directly or indirectly
competing with a SAS Product. Customer’s failure to comply with the
prohibitions contained in this Subsection 2.3 constitutes a breach of this
Agreement with respect to the SAS IP at issue. Due to the nature of the
property that is the subject of this Agreement, SAS shall have the right to
seek equitable relief to enforce any right arising hereunder or to prevent
or cure any breach of any obligation undertaken, without in any way
prejudicing any available legal relief. Such equitable relief may include,
but is not limited to, the seeking of a temporary or permanent injunction,
restraining order or order for specific performance, and may be sought in
any appropriate court, with or without prior notice, depending on the
circumstances. It is expressly agreed that the obligations of this paragraph
survive any termination of this Agreement. Customer shall promptly notify
SAS of any known or suspected use of any SAS IP in breach of this Agreement.
2.4.Customer shall not make any representation or any express or implied
warranty to third parties (including, without limitation, to any end users)
on behalf of SAS.
2.5. In the event Customer uses the SAS IP in conjunction with any Open Source
Programs, Customer must ensure that such use does not (a) grant, or purport
to grant, any rights to SAS’ intellectual property rights in the SAS IP;
(b) in any way restrict, or purport to restrict, SAS’ abilities to protect
its intellectual property rights in the SAS IP; or (c) create, or purport to
create, any obligations by SAS with respect to the SAS IP. By way of example
and not of limitation, Customer may not develop a software application which
contains code from the SAS IP and Open Source Programs, including but not
limited to libraries, if the Open Source Program license requires any
modifications or combinations to be made freely available. “Open Source
Programs” refers generally to software programs which are available for use,
modification and distribution without charge.
2.6. It is the sole responsibility of the Customer to maintain the privacy of
Customer’s data.
2.7. If Customer provides any feedback to SAS concerning any SAS IP or SAS
Product (including potential improvements), Customer hereby grants to SAS a
non-exclusive, royalty free, perpetual right to use such feedback at SAS’
discretion.
3. TERM AND TERMINATION.
3.1. All terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and apply in perpetuity, unless the Customer’s license to use the SAS
IP is terminated in accordance with this Section or Customer’s license to
the SAS Product with which the Customer Applicaton interconnects is
terminated or expires.
3.2. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) calendar days
written notice to the other party.
3.3. SAS may terminate this Agreement and Customer's license to all SAS IP
immediately (a) if Customer breaches any provision of this Agreement; or
(b) if Customer asserts any claim of intellectual property infringement
against SAS. In such event, SAS will notify Customer that Customer is not
licensed to access and/or use the SAS IP.
3.4. Upon termination, Customer’s right to use and possess any SAS IP shall
immediately cease and Customer shall return or destroy all copies thereof.
Customer shall provide written certification signed by an officer of
Customer that all copies of the SAS IP have been returned or destroyed and
that Customer has retained no copies. Termination does not affect any end
user’s rights to continue to use the Customer Application distributed prior
to the effective date of termination, provided, and only so long as,
Customer maintains a valid license to the SAS Product with which the
Customer Applicaton interconnects.
3.5. Notwithstanding termination, all terms and conditions of Sections 1, 2,
and 5-10 shall survive in perpetuity. Termination of this Agreement and
Customer’s right to access, use and/or possess any SAS IP shall not limit
the remedies otherwise available to either party, including injunctive
relief.
4. DELIVERY, SUPPORT.
4.1.SAS will make available for download a copy of those portions of the SAS
IP which SAS, using reasonable discretion, deems necessary for Customer to
develop the Customer Application. SAS may, in its sole discretion, provide
replacements, updates, or modifications, for any portion of the SAS IP
during the term of this Agreement (“Updated IP”). Customer will ensure that,
prior to commercially releasing any version of any Customer Application,
that version of the Customer Application will be fully compatible with the
most recent Updated IP, if any.
4.2.If requested by Customer, SAS may provide support for use of the SAS IP
for developing Customer Applications as set forth in an separate
professional services agreement to be executed by the Customer. All such
support is subject to SAS’ standard professional services terms and fees.
SAS will have no other support or service obligations except as set forth
in such professional services agreement.
5. CONFIDENTIALITY.
5.1. The term “Confidential Information” means any trade secrets or other
information of a party, whether of a technical, business, or other nature
(including, without limitation, information relating to a party’s
technology, software, products, services, designs, methodologies, business
plans, finances, marketing plans, customers, prospects, or other affairs),
that is disclosed to a party during the term of this Agreement and that such
party knows or has reason to know is confidential, proprietary, or trade
secret information of the disclosing party. The SAS IP is the Confidential
Information of SAS. Confidential Information does not include any
information that the receiving party can show: i) was known to the receiving
party prior to receiving the same from the disclosing party in connection
with this Agreement; ii) is independently developed by the receiving party
without use of or reference to the Confidential Information of the
disclosing party; iii) is acquired by the receiving party from another
source without restriction as to use or disclosure; or iv) is or becomes
part of the public domain through no fault or action of the receiving party.
5.2.During and after the term of this Agreement, each party will: i) use the
other party’s Confidential Information solely for the purpose for which it
is provided (in Customer’s case, solely for the purpose of developing the
Customer Applications); ii) not disclose the other party’s Confidential
Information to a third party unless the third party must access the
Confidential Information to perform in accordance with this Agreement and
the third party has executed a written agreement that contains terms that
are substantially similar to the terms contained in this Section 5; and iii)
protect the other party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use and
disclosure to the same extent (but using no less than a reasonable degree of
care) that it protects its own Confidential Information of a similar nature.
5.3. If either party is required by law to disclose the Confidential
Information or the terms of this Agreement, the disclosing party will use
reasonable commercial efforts to give prompt written notice of such
requirement before such disclosure (to the extent not prohibited by law) and
assist the non-disclosing party in obtaining an order protecting the
Confidential Information from public disclosure.
5.4.Upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement, or upon earlier
request, each party will deliver to the other all Confidential Information
that they may have in their possession or control.
5.5.The obligations in this Section 5 are in addition to, and supplement, each
party’s obligations of confidentiality under any nondisclosure or other
agreement between the parties containing nondisclosure obligations.
6. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER.
SAS AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR ARISING AS A RESULT OF CUSTOM OR USAGE IN THE TRADE OR
BY COURSE OF DEALING. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, SAS
AND ITS LICENSORS DO NOT WARRANT OR REPRESENT THAT THE SAS IP WILL RESULT IN
COMPLIANCE, FULFILLMENT OR CONFORMITY WITH THE LAWS, RULES, REGULATIONS,
REQUIREMENTS OR GUIDELINES OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY. SAS’ LICENSORS PROVIDE
THEIR SOFTWARE “AS IS.” THE SAS IP AND ALL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MADE
AVAILABLE BY SAS OR ITS LICENSORS UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT
ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
7. SAS INDEMNIFICATION.
7.1. SAS will indemnify, defend and hold Customer harmless, at SAS’s expense,
from and against any action brought or allegation made against Customer to
the extent that it is based upon a claim that any SAS IP, as provided by SAS
and used within the scope of this Agreement, infringes any copyright, trade
secret, U.S. patent or other third party proprietary right, and will pay all
costs, damages and reasonable attorneys' fees attributable to such claim
that are finally awarded against Customer. SAS’s obligations hereunder are
contingent on: i) Customer notifying SAS in writing promptly after Customer
becomes aware of a claim or the possibility thereof; ii) Customer granting
SAS sole control of the settlement, compromise, negotiation, and defense of
the claim; and iii) Customer providing good faith cooperation and reasonably
requested information for the defense of the claim.
7.2. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any claim that arises from:
i) modifications to the SAS IP made by anyone other than SAS; ii) Customer’s
use of any SAS IP in conjunction with any application, including but not
limited to the Customer Application, or system where use with such
application or system gave rise to the claim; iii) any use of the SAS IP
with software or systems other than a Customer Application; iv) use of other
than the most current, unaltered Updated IP if such claim would have been
avoided by the use of such Updated IP; and (v) compliance by SAS with
designs, plans or specifications furnished by or on behalf of Customer where
such compliance gave rise to the infringement claim.
7.3. SAS shall not be liable for any settlement made by Customer, without
SAS’s advance written approval, or for any award from any action in which
SAS was not granted control of the defense. The obligations contained in
this Section 7 will survive termination of this Agreement. This Section
states SAS’ entire liability and Customer’s exclusive remedy for any claim
of infringement of intellectual property of any kind.
8. CUSTOMER INDEMNIFICATION.
Customer will indemnify and defend SAS against, and hold SAS harmless from,
any and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses or damages of any nature
(including reasonable attorney fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent
arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions brought by an
unrelated third party concerning the Customer Application. The obligations
contained in the preceding sentence will survive termination of this
Agreement. This Section does not apply to any cost or damage attributable to
to a claim for which SAS has an obligation to indemnify Customer as set forth
in Section 7.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
9.1. NEITHER CUSTOMER, SAS, NOR SAS’ LICENSORS ARE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR RELIANCE DAMAGES (ARISING
IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NEITHER SAS NOR SAS’ LICENSORS ARE LIABLE FOR
ANY CLAIM AGAINST CUSTOMER BY A THIRD PARTY RELATING TO USE OF THE SAS IP,
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 7. SAS’ LICENSORS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR DIRECT
DAMAGES (ARISING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) AND DISCLAIM ANY LIABILITY
CONNECTED WITH USE OF THE SAS IP. THE PARTIES MAKE THESE EXCLUSIONS IN
CONSIDERATION OF THE FEES PAID AND LICENSES GRANTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
9.2. THE TOTAL AMOUNT COMPANY MAY RECOVER FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT IS LIMITED IN THE AGGREGATE TO ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00).
9.3. To the extent that any applicable law limits or does not allow
limitations of liability or exclusions for incidental or consequential
damages, the provisions of this Section shall apply to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law.
9.4. This Section does not apply to the indemnification obligations in
Sections 7 and 8, breach of the confidentiality obligatons in Section 5 or
to either party’s violation of the other’s intellectual property rights.
10. GOVERNING LAW; EXPORT AND IMPORT RESTRICTIONS.
10.1. Governing Law. Both parties agree to the application of the laws of the
State of North Carolina to govern, interpret, and enforce all of Customer’s
and SAS’ respective rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or
relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Agreement, without
regard to conflict of law principles. The parties expressly agree to exclude
from this Agreement the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods.
10.2. EXPORT/IMPORT RESTRICTIONS. SAS hereby notifies Customer that the SAS IP
is of United States of America (“United States”) origin and United States
export laws and regulations apply to the SAS IP. Both SAS and Customer agree
to comply with these and other applicable export and import laws and
regulations. Customer’s compliance obligations include ensuring (a) that
there is no access, download, export, re-export, import, or distribution of
the SAS IP or any underlying information, technology or data except in full
compliance with all laws and regulations of the United States and in full
compliance with any other applicable laws and regulations; and (b)
compliance with restrictions of countries other than the United States
related to exports and imports. United States export classification
information for SAS software can be found at SAS’ Export Compliance website
located at http://support.sas.com/adminservices/export.html. By accepting
the Agreement and using and/or, if authorized, downloading the SAS IP,
Customer agrees to the foregoing and represents and warrants that (i)
neither Customer nor any User, as defined in the Software License Agreement,
is a party to whom the United States prohibits access to the SAS IP; (ii)
neither Customer nor any User is located in, under control of, or a national
or resident of any country to which export of the SAS IP is restricted by
laws of the United States or other applicable laws and regulations,
including E:1 countries (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and
Sudan); (iii) neither Customer nor any User will use the SAS IP in
activities directly or indirectly related to the proliferation of weapons of
mass destruction; (iv) neither Customer nor any User will share access to
the SAS IP with a party identified in this paragraph; and (v) neither
Customer nor any User shall further export the SAS IP without a license or
other authorization from the United States.
11. GENERAL.
11.1. Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any part of
this Agreement unenforceable, that part shall be excluded, but the remainder
of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
11.2. No Waiver. Failure to require compliance with a part of this Agreement
is not a waiver of that part. Nothing in this Agreement waives any remedy
SAS may have under this Agreement at law, in equity, or otherwise.
11.3. Non-assignment. Customer may not assign this Agreement or any of its
rights or obligations hereunder whether voluntarily or involuntarily, and
whether by means of merger, consolidation, sale of assets, dissolution,
operation of law, or by any other manner, without SAS’ written permission,
which permission will not be unreasonably withheld. Any purported assignment
in violation of this Section 11.3 is void and constitutes a material breach
of this Agreement.
11.4. Audit. Upon fifteen (15) business days’ notice to Customer, SAS will
have the right to conduct an on- site audit during Customer’s normal
business hours to verify compliance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Customer shall cooperate with SAS by: (a) making applicable
records available; (b) providing copies of the records requested; and (c)
directing all agents to cooperate. If the audit reveals that Customer owes
additional license fees, Customer shall pay the amounts owed and SAS’
reasonable expenses in conducting the audit.
11.5. Injunctive Relief. Breach of SAS' or SAS’ Licensors’ intellectual
property rights will lead to damages not adequately remedied by an award of
money; therefore, SAS may protect those intellectual property rights through
temporary restraining orders or injunctions, without the obligation of
posting bond.
11.6. English Language. The parties acknowledge that they have agreed that
this Agreement and all notices and documents relating hereto shall be drawn
up in the English language and that nothing herein shall be construed
against the drafter of this Agreement based solely on the choice of
language.
12. COMPLETE AGREEMENT; MODIFICATIONS.
This Agreement is the parties' complete and exclusive statement relating to
their subject matter. No modifications to this Agreement will be accepted.
Additional or conflicting terms on current or future Customer or third party
purchasing documents are expressly objected to and rejected. The individual
accepting this Agreement by clicking “I agree” represents that he or she has
authority to bind Customer to this Agreement.
